Is there a way to delete all autotextlist fields from a document, in one step?
 
Use replace to find
^d AUTOTEXTLIST
replace with nothing

Thanks Graham! For anyone else interested, Graham is reminding us that when
you're in a file and you choose Edit\Replace and click the 'Special' button
you get a dropdown list of special characters, one of which is "^d", the
special character signifying 'field'. This might not occur to someone unless
they've worked with fields quite a bit.
 
And of course you have to have field codes displayed for this to work.
